Viking Moon, the new horror comic written by Joe Pruett (Cable) and illustrated by Marcelo Frusin (Hellblazer), will reveal the real reason the Vikings left North America: werewolves! The five-issue miniseries from Image will begin in September 2005.

The book starts in 1003 when Leif Erikson established a Viking settlement in Vneland, and they soon learn that indigenous people aren’t the only ones living in the wild frontier. Because of the predators that prowl the land, the first expedition ended in disaster. Two decades later, Ulf and his Viking tribe make a second attempt at settling there, only to learn that the supernatural creatures are still prowling the area.

“This a story I’ve wanted to write for a long time, but I did not want to do it unless I found the perfect artist for it…which I did in Marcelo Frusin,” Pruett said. “I think Marcelo is doing the best work of his career with this series and I can’t wait for the world to see and love it as much as I do! He truly is a master in his element with this title. It’s an action-packed, edge-of-your-seat, horror tale that I promise will offer twists and shocks you did not see coming! It’s M. Night Shyamalan meets Vikings meets The Howling.”

“From the very first moment Joe told me about Viking Moon, I was fascinated by the combination of Vikings and werewolves, an epic and terrifying universe that offered me infinite visual possibilities,” Frusin said. “Joe’s talent for handling these elements and crafting a captivating story moment by moment has impressed me from the start. As Joe develops the script, every decision he makes seems perfect to me and leaves me with a constant desire to know how the story will continue. I hope you all enjoy the comic as much as I enjoy drawing it!”

Viking Moon #1 will be in comic shops on September 17.
